We can make a difference! There are numerous animal rescues and shelters in the DFW area. Most of these organizations rely on their volunteers to assist in the day-to-day care of their animals. The more time we spend to care for and socialize these animals, the more animals we can prepare for their forever home. Their are 168 hours in a week. Can we take a couple of hours each week to care for animals who had no say in the start to their lives? Look into the local shelters and rescues in your area. Go and visit their facilities. Pick the shelter or rescue that works for you and make a difference. Make a difference not only on the animals you positively affect with your compassion, but the families they will be a part of for the rest of their lives.
